Release notes (0.9.5)

v0.9.0 Release notes

Nest it. Frost it. Go long.

The composer just got a glow-up. Nest layers into groups, drive layouts off each other, and drop on a real glass effect — then take Seedance 2.5 out to 30 seconds. Variants, PDFs, and faster workflows come along for the ride.

Layer groups

Organize compositions better. Group layers, nest groups inside groups, collapse them in the layers pane, and transform a group as a unit — members move with it. Group, ungroup, and drop layers into groups from the canvas or the layers list.

Better filter controls

Filters are easier to reuse. Copy and paste a whole filter stack between layers, or copy settings from one filter onto another of the same type. Each filter has its own icon, enable/disable, and reset — so looks are faster to duplicate than to rebuild.

Glass filter

Frosted backdrop, edge refraction, chromatic dispersion, and rim light. Tune frost, depth, refraction, and light direction, and keyframe it over time. Works with translucent fills so the backdrop actually shows through.

Object drivers

Link a layer’s width, height, or position to another layer. Size a background to follow text (with padding), pin something to an edge or corner, and choose whether to track the layout box or the actual content bounds. Independent from parenting.

Multi-layer editing

Select several layers and edit shared properties in one inspector. Matching values apply to the whole selection; mixed values are marked so you can see what’s already different — then change only what you mean to.

Easy snapping

Layers snap to each other and to the comp while you move and scale, with live guides. Scale independently on X and Y from the border handles, so fitting and aligning on the canvas is less guesswork.

Seedance 2.5

Seedance 2.5 is in the Seedance node alongside 2.0. Go up to 30 seconds (2.0 still caps at 15) at up to 1080p. Allows for up to 50 references (audio, video and of course images).

Variant maps and PDFs

Export a labelled grid of every language × format as variant maps, visual overviews of all outputs – automate merging and create workflows to compile fully deliverable pdfs mapping your generative results. Perfect for overviews.

Other fixes

  • String replace and String constant nodes.
  • Composition output node – expose a composition as a live workflow output.
  • Independent workflow branches now execute in parallel instead of one-by-one.
  • Better CJK, Greek, and Cyrillic text rendering with bundled fallback fonts.
  • More text properties are animatable: size, tracking, color, arc, and variable axes.
  • Save to disk can write compositions as optimized packages.
  • Bug fixes and improvements.
